the forward crop, save for Deuce and Landycakes is terrible. I really wish he would have called Robbie Rogers into the squad. His pace is blistering and he is showing a real killer instinct this year and he can fill in on LM as well since there is little/no chance of DMB playing the full 90. Also would like to see Altidore play in that big of a match. Who cares if it effects a RBNY match? This is more important.

I hope Orozco gets a start. He deserves it. Boca hasn't played for months.

@FC Uptown: it makes sense to go more Euro heavy since they have to travel less to get to Wembley and also it keeps Bradley on good terms with MLS clubs to get players released for non-mandatory dates.

Don't think anyone is surprised at the limited MLS call ups. It does make sense.

DaMarcus Beasley has two more opportunities to get more minutes prior to the match, after coming on as a late sub against St. Mirren, the final SPL match against Aberdeen and the Scottish Cup Final. Hopefully, he gets time in both. I think he wants to play against England very badly.

Two Points:I feel Jeremiah White should have been named to the larger provisional squad, although the SAS season has not yet concluded.

This will be a real test of the U.S. back 4, and its Heath Pearce's job to lose at this point at LB.
